I'm a nurse entrepreneur that started a testing and assessment company back in 2005. NurseTesting.com has grown to become the Gold Standard in pre-employment screening for hospitals and healthcare staffing firms across the country. We continue to innovate our services and will be launching Prophecy Assessments, that will predict the success of the nurse/clinician being hired.I am married with 2 children. Love to spend time with my family and watch my children grow up right before my eyes :) I am fascinated with technology!!! I miss bedside nursing...the stories you hear from patients are amazing, and sometimes makes you feel like you are time traveling...depending on the storyteller of course.
